Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of an ultrasound guided left sided stellate ganglion block with bupivacaine in patients undergoing esophagectomy, pneumonectomy, or lobectomy will result in lower rates of postoperative atrial fibrillation as compared to standard of care.
The proposed research is an important extension of an ongoing perioperative personalized analgesia and intravenous opioid pharmacogenetic research. This research focuses on two of the most commonly used oral opioid analgesics, oxycodone, and methadone, in adults following thoracic surgery. Major inpatient thoracic surgeries (TS) for lung disease are common and extremely painful surgeries and are associated with sever post-surgical pain, high incidence of chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP), excess opioid use, costly immediate postoperative opioid adverse events (AEs), and long hospital stays. This study is aiming to develop proactive risk prediction algorithms for precision surgical pain relief in adult TS patients through comparison of actual clinical outcomes with standard of care to predicted outcomes based on personalized risk assessments.
The hypothesis is whether perineural dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine prolonged the duration of analgesia as compared with either perineural dexamethasone or perineural dexmedetomidine after TPVB.
Pain after thoracic surgery remains a challenge for anesthetists. Although VATS for lobectomy is associated with fewer complications compared to thoracotomy, pain after VATS needs to be treated with opioids. Opioids may lead to PONV, respiratory depression, sedation and pruritus. As part of multimodal analgesia and opioids sparing, several local regional techniques has been described: paravertebral block, thoracic epidural analgesia, intercostal block. To date, there is no gold standard for regional anesthesia after VATS. Serratus plane block is a local regional technique, recently described for analgesia after breast surgery and ribs fracture. In our hospital center, since 2016, we used the Serratus plane block for patients scheduled for lobectomy VATS : a local retrospective trial showed that SPB was associated with a lower consumption of morphine. The purpose of this randomized controlled double blinded study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of the Serratus plane block, added to a general anesthesia on post operative pain control after VATS lobectomy.
